Popular Spirituality And The Truth Pamphlet
$4.99
In just 14-pages, you can quickly compare 30 biblical teachings about Jesus with the teachings of Eckhart Tolle, Deepak Chopra, and Rhonda Byrne. Many popular spirituality teachers claim to follow biblical teachings, and even Jesus’ own words, but they frequently misuse the Bible to promote their own contradictory teachings. When Eckhart Tolle, a “spiritual master of no particular religion,” can influence millions of TV and Internet viewers to search within themselves for life’s purpose, it’s time to measure those “truths” against the eternal truth found in the person and work of Jesus Christ. This Bible pamphlet investigates the spiritual claims of Tolle, Rhonda Byrnes (author of The Secret), and Deepak Chopra giving exact quotes and shows Bible passages that address key points. Bestselling author Dr. Timothy Paul Jones compares the claims of pop spirituality with what the Bible says, providing answers to untrue statements and understandings, such as:
Every human being is divine
There are many paths to the truth about God
The goal of my life is centered in me
What I desire determines what happens in my life
God’s Word is not the final authority
14 panels, fits inside most Bibles, 8.5 x 5.5 inches, unfolds to 38 inches long.

Surprised By Hope
$15.99For years Christians have been asking, “If you died tonight, do you know where you would go?” It turns out Christians have been giving the wrong answer. It is not heaven.
One of today’s premier Bible scholars and award-winning author N.T. Wright outlines the present confusion about a Christian’s future hope and shows how it is deeply intertwined with how we live today. Wright shows that Christianity’s most distinctive idea is bodily resurrection. First, he provides a magisterial defense of a literal resurrection of Jesus himself. This became the cornerstone for the Christian community’s hope in the bodily resurrection of all people at the end of the age. Next Wright explores our expectation of “new heavens and new earth,” showing what happens to the dead until then and what will happen with the “second coming” of Jesus. For many, including many Christians, all this will come as a great surprise.
Wright convincingly argues that what we believe about life after death directly affects what we believe about life before death. For if God intends to renew the whole creation – and if this has already begun in Jesus’s resurrection – the church cannot stop at “saving souls” but must anticipate the eventual renewal by working for God’s kingdom in the wider world, bringing healing and hope in the present life.
Lively and accessible, this book will surprise and excite all who are interested in the meaning of life, not only after death but, before it.
